can you refute what they say?
if they take a point why are you just critizing them for having that point instead of explaining why they are wrong?
or do you really agree with them?
did you not already know that they would not testify?
some women never apologize.
they decide some man is 'the problem' and then nothing that guy does will ever ease those women's wrath.
'don't stand there'
'we moved your coat to another table'
'why do you feel that you're targeting you, you're paranoid'
"I did not realize that my mere presence was so annoying to you"
"free for me, not for thee"
you keep repeating yourself.
a woman on my street flipped out because I told her little daughter not to go into my mailbox.
she came down and acted like I was a murderer. I told her to take it up with the post master general. She really didn't know that children aren't supposed to go into other people's mailboxes.
the local 'charity' person who always collects money for various charity things must have told the other women . . . that give out the coffee and donuts about what happened because now I seem to be on their shit-list.
I'm not configured for it. I don't want their crappy coffee anyway.
'So and so said you need to move away from the table' one of them told me.
I was a bit shell shocked.
last week they moved my coat.
I was like 'so you voted me off the island' trying to pretend it didn't bother me. I almost decided to never go to that event again, even though it's associated with . . .
anyway I thought, if they hassle me again, I'll tell them 'why don't we make a sign. What do you want it to say. That way the rules can be for everyone and not just me'
I'm sure that no matter what I do I'll remain their whipping boy.
the stupid thing is that I don't even want what they offer.
I wasn't standing there because I wanted to be a pest. I just was trying to talk to someone else who stands there.
it dawned on me that they might have told him but he told me he just ignores them.
so they targetted me.
It's a very unfriendly situation in a supposed 'all are welcome' place.
and I don't really want to humiliate them with exposure. I want it just to blow over and have them get over their tizzy.
'We're so important. WE give out crappy food and lousey coffee with past date cream at the end of mass, get out of our way or face our wrath.'
I'm thinking it should be called 'coffee and donuts and indignation'
but we aren't supposed to complain or we're 'judging them'?
It's not the only church in town.
DCIYRION
this is my little fable about how ridiculous women can be.
when Augustus became ruler
he made it into an autocratic state meanwhile leading the Senate on that it was actually still the old system.
maybe that's what happened now.
The bankster run it all and the president and all the rest were just figure heads.
but Trump isn't just a figure head.
they'd like him to be but he's not.
since you noticed you must also be catholic
in your view of it no one else who came before you except Jesus had any value to you.
you ignore all the holy people who Jesus tasked with spreading his message.
cause you're the only one who matters, right?
no one who was holy before you means anything?
so why do you read the bible it wasn't written by Jesus but by those very people who you reject as 'pompous middle men'
I could mow my snow.
but people don't mow snow.
there might be a joke in there but if so, I don't know what it is.
Matthew 5:11-12
NASB
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in this same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
I have a snowblower, yes.
but the last few years there has been no need for it.
I bought it when we had like three feet of snow one week and two feet the next.
I think I've used it once in the last 4 years.
we don't get much snow in this current cycle of weather.
but I'm sure I'll need it again soon enough.
Frosty, the snow man asked for one but I said 'wait a minute, Frosty, I don't think you really know what it is . . . '
a crude joke
Pray to Jesus to give you the strength and spirit to be holy, anon. He WILL do it for you.
recognize what the demons are that possess you and renounce them. "I renounce the spirit of lust"
" I renounce the spirit of addiction to . . . "
you need to remember what they all are and recount them to a priest in confession which will be the quickest way to get absolution.
if you don't have confession in your place of worship, it will be harder for you but you can still do it.
what your sins are, you need to tell a priest.
talk to a priest, anon. read about how to do an examination of conscience, and do one. Spend some time and go through your life and try to recall all your sinning. Feel real sorrow for it all. Recognize how you ruined your own life through sinning.
don't blame others for it, blame yourself.
find an act of contrition (there are different verions) and say it regularly. I found like 8 and said them over and over while I went down the lists of sins in my mind using an examination of conscience guide and then I found a priest at a city church far from my house and spent a long time in the confessional going over all of it with him. I had been meditating on it for weeks before.
the key: actually feel the sorrow of it, actually remember how it effected you.
I had success revitilizing a lawn mower this year.
I had broken the blade and it shook when I started it.
I priced new ones and figured out for $100 I could get a bunch of parts, fix something that were annoying (like the way the wheels worked) and gave it a tune up. I did all that. I took the broken blade off and then, after the tune up, tried to start it (oil change, new filter, new spark plug).
It would not start.
The reason, I quickly determined, is that without the blade there is no mass to hold the angular momentum. The blade, it self, being properly installed (and ballanced) is key to getting the motor to start!
I put on the new blade. It still didn't start. Then I remembered that I'd taken the wire off in order to make sure it would be safe to put the blade on. Two pulls and it started!
change the oil and the spark plug, at least, if the motor doesn't start. PS: the snow blower motors aren't the type that need a blade on them to start.
I saved 250 dollars and my old mower works great.
PS: old mowers that people leave out in front of their houses to throw them away often only need to have the oil drained and replaced and maybe a new spark plug or blade to make them function again.
maybe that doesn't interest you but it's news to many. Plus, if you're even a little bit handy with a wrench it's not hard to do. but you can sit there with your scowl and act like I'm wasting your time and go spend 350 dollars for a crappy new china built model that will work for a season or two before it no longer functions.
in fact it's the other way around, anon.
It's protestants who study scripture who suddenly realize that the reformation was a very bad thing.
and they come back to the church and become excellent Catholics.
are you a Hot Wheels collector?
you'll need a carbonator to open the beer that you'll be drinking while you replace the carburetor?
The 'Carbonator' is a Hot Wheel that looks like a bottle, it has wheels, but it also doubles as a can-opener!
be your own Santa. Go to the rack and find the '2026 new years' Carbonator that is current now! get your self a six pack, invite a friend, and toast the season!
I saw one just the other day.
